Bottom-Up Is The Only Way To Preserve Democracy - Top-Down Is Always Elitist and Exclusive

Bottom-Up Is The Only Way To Preserve Democracy 


Be honest the voting public is fairly evenly divided.  There seems to be two edges on the current division that may be pursuable to vote in one group or another.  These are, the euphemistically the independents.

Which way they vote is incredibly important!

Can we assume they vote selfishly in their own interest unless they understand a broader message.

The House of Representatives is a disaster either way, left or right.  The GOP has given its vote to the top-down elites.  The Democrats sat on their hands because they didn't think Trump-Johnson could pull off a CR (Continuing Resolution) budget.  Now the House Democrats blame the Senate Democrats for the budget.

That's the wrong focus.  The budget is what it is.

The Democrats can build a bottom-up consensus coalition.  How?


Townhall meetings, creating that bottom-up consensus and understanding that top-down always only serves a few.  

There needs to be a drive to show that even if those of us in the bottom 95% have more in common with each other than we do with the elite 5%.  The 5% elite is using it's megaphone to confuse and mislead us.

The elite version of selfish interest says if you don't have the money you can't have a secure life.  That is the message!!!!


Democrats ... fan out and do Townhall Meetings relentlessly!  When the GOP sees the effect they will start to waver on supporting Trump ... so will Trump!  The locals will create their grass-roots

Voting for Shimel is like voting for Elon Musk for being on the Supreme Court

 

A vote Shimel is a vote for Elon Musk


New York Times

Reid J. Epstein has covered Wisconsin politics on and off since 2002.


Feb. 26, 2025

A super PAC funded by Elon Musk has in just the past week spent $2.3 million on text messages, digital advertisements and paid canvassers to remind Wisconsin Republicans about the April 1 election, which pits Brad Schimel, a judge in Waukesha County and a former Republican state attorney general, against Susan Crawford, a Dane County judge who represented Planned Parenthood and other liberal causes in her private practice.

The spending by Mr. Musk, the tech billionaire who is leading President Trump’s project to eviscerate large segments of the federal government, comes as Judge Schimel and his Republican allies have spent more money on television ads than Judge Crawford and Democrats have — a remarkable turnaround in a state where Democrats have had a significant financial advantage in recent years.

J. D. Vance thinks he can take Donald's Superman Cape !

Why was Zelenskyy insulted by Vance in the White House on Friday!


Long term positioning whether Trump knows it or not.  Vance wants to inherit MAGA.


Doesn't J.D. look like a 'Donald'.  So tough!

Executing the 25th Amendment is going to be real tough.  Autocrats tend to prefer dynastic succession plans if at all, even those tend to make them a little more paranoid
